Yet you didn’t tell me I was wrong. Liberals by default hate America. I want what’s best for everyone and that involves eliminating waste. You seem angry and against it. Such a shame

Why do I have to work a job based on market force


Because that is a choice you freely made?

a special group of people that cushy guaranteed federal jobs not connected to the market at all?


Typically in exchange for lower wages and a pension.

Are you saying there should be no teachers, home health aides, social workers, or other workers to care for children, the disabled, and the elderly?

Ahh yes, the poli-board favorite....you don't see the world exactly like me ergo you are a "commie". Real big brain arguments here, bud.

quote:

Nobody should be propped up because they want to without any consideration of who pays for it.


So frick children, the disabled, and the elderly right? None of those people matter according to your selfish, retarded ideology.

You worship at the altar of the "market" which is quite ironic since I'm willing to bet you fancy yourself a "Christian". Keep on worshipping those false idols and you can book your spot in hell alongside us heathen atheists.

There are certain areas of society that "muh free market" won't touch and thus government has stepped into that space.

To bring it back to "free choice", you are free to quit your job and live high on the hog like the welfare queens you rail against. Methinks you won't like that too much, internet tough guy.

I know quite a few of them. In my experience, the overwhelming majority are harmless dorks who just got a federal job out of college because they liked the benefits and retirement package.


And what do they provide?

They are leaching off tax payers.

It's not just the payroll, it's all of the other money these various bureaucracies dole out and the over-reaching regulations they write into law. The thinning of the herd is just step one. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

It boils down to blind loyalty and faith in very flawed humans.

Please don’t bore us with any facts or statistics. Unless Elon Musk tweeted it.

Social Security is still funded by itself and has not caused any of the current deficit. It is expected to run out of money in the future but not yet.

Your premise is that Trump is only targeting waste, fraud, and corruption by eliminating unnecessary federal jobs. Of course he's doing that, as well as uncovering massive waste, fraud, and corruption.
Stick around prog shite stain. I hope you still post here once those responsible begin trials in federal court. Your naive if you don't think Bondi is taking notes and preparing investigations.

Lol.... You Marxist think y'all can do some misdirection shite and we the people can't see thru it .
Seriously, try harder girl!


This is solid material. Will include in my next preface on here.

The public is blaming federal workers for all the waste and fraud when it is Congress that approved all the spending. That's why they are DEAD silent! Federal workers are the scapegoat.

"Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain."- Frederic Bastiat
